<h2>Tabs (My Resources, All Resources, Web Search)</h2>
<hr>

<h4>Why use them?</h4>

<p>The tabs across the top of the page repeat the search entered in the Quick 
and Advanced searches, or specified by the saved search loaded, across the 
resources you've bookmarked (<b>My Resources)</b>, all resources in the 
system bookmarked by anyone (<b>All Resources</b>)<b> </b>and via a Google 
search of the web <b>(Web</b>)<b>.</b> This is an extremely rapid way to find 
resources which you have not yet bookmarked.</p>

<h4>How to use them</h4>

<p>Do a search on the My Resources tab. If you don't find what you want, 
broaden the search by clicking on the All Resources tab (that is, all 
resources in the Heurist database bookmarked by anyone), and if that doesn't 
find it, to a Google web search by clicking on the Web Search tab.</p>

<p>Note that Google searches on whole words only - for example,&nbsp; 'syd trav' gets 62K hits, 'sydney 
travel' gets 45M hits.</p>

<h4>Future plans</h4>

<p>User configuration of the search engine to use in the web search tab, 
possibly a pulldown or radio button to choose different search engines. We also 
plan to provide better search URL construction as we build complex selections 
into our advanced tab - for example, exclusion of words, searching specific 
domains and so forth.</p>
